59: Airlines claiming that their flight is the cheapest, only to add insane fees to your luggage, to you wearing clothes, to you having hair on your head and to you having blood in your body, thereby pushing the price up to the same amount as the "expensive" airlines.

Unfortunately, you've just added them to a list of things that should end, so if this list ever gets implemented you won't have them available to use at all.

Most commercials are worth nothing. Very few actually do the two things a commercial should do to be effective: 1) entertain you & 2) demonstrate how the product will benefit you. So I would argue that the ones with girls with big tits or nice butts are a more pleasant way to pass the time than most. But you're entitled to your opinion (and your list entry.)

I'm in 100% agreement on the Evony ads, however. Those things are just outright ridiculousness. I've played Evony for a bit and as a standard resource management and strategic combat MMO game goes, it's okay .... but there are no babes, bras or bikinis anywhere to be found in it.

At least if you drink a certain kind of beer there IS a long-shot chance you'll meet a hot girl like the commercials show. Admittedly an extreme long-shot for some people, but a chance just the same!

61) Reality shows decided by audience voting. After watching the outcomes of enough Idols and Dancing and Talent, I can say with authority that the public at large has no business judging talent.

Well, that's true, but it's also true if you eat too many beans. What's your point?

We actually have a single one running in Denmark right now that achieves all three of these.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ckws1vX8tPA
It's a commercial for a grain-based cereal, better for you than a lot of cereal out there, but unfortunately it does not taste very good if you ask me.
But I found the commercial insanely entertaining, and even though I have seen it a lot on the TV, I'll still turn off my music on my pc and listen if it comes on.
Commercials like that are rare but when they show, they are worth watching.
Also, the danish state-run railway company has this series of commercials that has been running for years with this big danish entertainer playing a businessman with his friend who's a purple fluffy doll with red hair, yet nobody seems to notice that. The businessman keeps promoting how these trains are comfortable and easier to use, and the purple doll guy never gets it, and he keeps insisting on his car. Those are very much amusing.

Oh, you meant that if you drink enough beer, you won't care what the lady looks like if you can score her affections. Well, I never drink enough to be that blind, but the amusing part is that I thought you meant that if you drink enough no woman would be interested in you. Hence my comment about beans. LOL!

Yeah, it is funny. Well, if such a thing were possible, it would be better than getting drunk on alcohol. If you got too drunk on booze, you could kill yourself. If you got too drunk on beans, you'd just kill everyone around you!

I think that reality shows in general should end. That kind show exists because they are very cheap to produce and because lots of people watch it. It makes people feel better than the people on the show, it creates huge amounts of drama and some suspense that people often like to follow, and it makes people feel that they could be the ones winning a million dollars, or whatever the prize is.

Also on the issue of burkas and niqabs and hijabs and such, I agree with Saya that it should be the choice of the woman as to whether she wears one. I think what needs to change is the attitudes of the people who feel the need to pressure people into doing something like that against their will. If a woman would like to assert piety, non-consumerism, or desire to be talked to before being asked out on a date, that is her choice, as long as she makes it freely for her own reason, and applies common sense as to when she wears it or not (such as in a medical situation, or in instances when one is required to present ID).
This being said, I don't believe that people should pressure women into not wearing a burka/niqab/hijab. Quebec is trying to ban face coverings in public buildings (even libraries - no one needs to see ID or be terribly communicative in a library).

Sorry if that made no sense. I'm tired and congested, and I can't think properly when my nose doesn't work.

P.S. Speaking of congestion, I second the allergy entry into this list.
